Influence of fluid accumulation on major adverse kidney events in critically ill patients – an observational cohort study
Main finding · MAKE30Result — go to the resultAdjusted odds ratio 1.96 95% CI 1.67–2.30Authors' conclusion
Fluid accumulation is significantly associated with MAKE30 in critically ill patients. This association is independent from pre-existing CKD and strongest in patients with AKI stage 3.
Study context
- Population
- Adult intensive care unit (ICU) patients with sufficient data to compute fluid accumulation (FA) and MAKE301,100 (8.3%) met FA definition
- Participants
- 13,326 patients
- Exposure
- Fluid accumulation vs no FA at ICU day 3
- FAn = 1,100
- Outcome
- Major adverse kidney events in the first 30 days after ICU admission (MAKE30)
- Follow-up
- 30 days

MAKE30 by chronic kidney disease (CKD) and AKI stage (sensitivity analysis)
- Association of FA with MAKE30 independent of pre-existing CKD, but exclusively in patients with AKI stage 3
Serum creatinine trajectory during ICU stay
- FA independently associated with creatinine trajectory over the whole observation period
